Good Evening Ladies,
Blondie - Glad the new job is going good, that's awesome news and that's some determination bringing all that what not to work so you can work out, wtg!
Jacqui - Hope you guys had a wicked 4 O'July and nice to have a private BBQ with that good OP food. And thanks, it's pretty cool to live life, have fun and still respect ourselves. It's the first time that my mind thought, I don't want that in my body rather than whinning in my head that I wished I could eat it and feeling deprived. My dh even commented tonight that is was so nice to be home to enjoy some healthy food again. And this from a man who had jelly beans for breakfast today!
Glutio - Hope parting with kitty wasn't too hard, that's always so difficult and have fun visiting!
LTBH - I'd say 1.8 in like 3 days is rather awesome!
for that job, no weekends, how blissful.
LTTG - Hi to Sandye's mom
Your daughter may be the sole reason I can't look at my rolling pin anymore but I do have the shiniest sink in town b/c of her too. So glad you're here, it's a pretty amazing place.
Nellonello - Well..unless you ate 10,500 extra calories last night, I'd say you're good on a water bet. Nevre nice to see it go backwards but facts are facts I'd love to see someone sit down and eat that much in one sitting (But come to think of it I bet I have before). Good for you on the walk, I'm with you there too, the more the scale irritates me the more I exercise, it's at least something you have direct control over.
JasonsLea - Good luck apartment hunting, I always love seeing how other people live!
Mystical - Calorie counting is awesome, it helps those of us with no portion control, or the ability to understand hunger signals (points at self) to realize what we should eat and helps you live like a semi regular person. To me that's pretty frickin awesome. And glad to have some more Canadians around, me and NSM and LTBH we vastly outnumbered!
Penelope - I love blueberries, I will have some for breakfast, thanks for the suggestion and wtg on the will power!
SkinnyJeans - That's some awesome super weight loss there, good on ya! I'm a hard core calorie counter but it would be pretty awesome to be able to intuitively eat like that, mine's broken, it tells me to eat chips and have cake. A friend of mine has done that for about five years and she's kept her weight off the whole time so it definitely works great!
Moralia - Hi
I'll send you some scale vibes, they work pretty good
: The fat's time will come but it sure does have it's own schedule.
Great outlook though!
Jacqui - Johnny Depp is welcome to father any future children I have, dh is aware of this but he feels pretty secure he won't show up in god knows where Alberta but Ohio, I mean that's a distict possibility. Do you remember if the movie was any good
? And a sneaky one too, good for you!
Wow that took awhile, and here I wanted to be in bed at 10. Today was crazy after not working out hard for a week I went kinda nuts, running, elliptical, pilates and weights but it works out to about an hour hard cardio so it's not psycho.
I've been doing some reading about hormones and weight and food and all that good stuff lately. It started b/c I noticed that once I was eating properly my skin and hair and nails have gotten so much better. But the real kicker is that I'm pretty sure my testosterone levels have gone down, all of two months ago I used to get these ten stray hairs on my lower abdomen and now they're gone, weird hun? I'm scared to think of all the craziness that I wasn't even aware of going on in this here body of mine, at least we're moving in the right direction.
But I need to go finish reading up on endocrinology and if I'm too tired it's hard to get through, nothing like reading about insulin and leptin before bed. Nightly night.
DB and I visited the farmer's market (LOVE it!), and one booth was selling these DELECTABLE looking pies. OMG! I wanted the blueberry one SO bad. But...I thought about it...and decided that I would buy fresh blueberries instead. I'm going to pick some up on Monday when we go grocery shopping.
and you ARE strong, because you keep going despite the feelings of anger and helplessness...you keep going and that is your strength. Hang in there, I will pray for strength for you and peace and relief for him. 
) The good news is that I stayed away from movie popcorn and candy and instead I snuck almonds, blueberries, and water in!
